Over-population leading to Over-exploitation

If little children are reading this page, the first question that comes to mind is: what is population, and what is the definition of the population? So, here's your response. A population is a group of individuals from the same species that live together and interbreed in the same region. Individuals in a population usually rely on the same resources, face comparable environmental limitations, and rely on the availability of other members to survive in the long run .  Population demographics, often known as demography, is a branch of science concerned with collecting and evaluating these figures. Any statistical element that influences population growth or decline can be included in demographics, although certain characteristics are particularly important: population size, density, age structure, fecundity (birth rates), mortality (death rates), and the sex ratio.

These are 'all of a sudden' troubles to mankind. And such kinds of dangerous events cause sudden changes in the environment and thereby cause damage to it.  A catastrophe or disaster is described by the United Nations as "the sudden event that leads to the huge loss of life and property."  There are disasters like catastrophic disasters. Ex. Cyclones in Odisha,  devastating earthquakes in Gujarat and Latur, and often buzzing cyclones in coastal Andhra Pradesh,  all result in complete mayhem and significant loss of life and property in the affected areas.  Regardless of these factors, life has always returned to normal within a short period of t...
